childrens hair styles 1910s
Figure 1.--Here we see an unidentified primary school class, we think in the 1910s. The dealer thinks it may be an Omaha, Nebraska school. This looks to us like 7-year olds in a second grade class. The boys have short hair, many with bangs. There is one excepotion to the short hair, the boy at the extreme right wearing a sailor suyit with Dutch boy bangs. The girls have long hair, many with large hair bows.

The photographic record privides details about children's hair styles in the 1900s. Most boys had short hair in the 1910s. Oftren younger boys had curls, but almost all had their hair cuyt short before beginning school. Many younger boys in primsru school had bangs. Side parts became increasingly common as the boys grew older. A few boys had center parts. The hair was cut short and usually did not civer the ears. Girls had more vsaried styles, many with center parts. They generally wore their hir long. We do not see mny with bobbed hir. What we do see is many girls with lsrge hair bows. White was a popular color, but we see colored bows as well. Girls of all ages wore hair bows.
